I've seen it on some Honda Cr-V's, Honda Pilot's....

"Aberdeen Green Metallic Honda Color"
Check it out on google to verify.

The SSM is the correct name; however, in '92 the SC300 Lexus did not offer, as I recall, the trunk spoiler so that is aftermarket I believe....

From the one picture the paint looks real good and the match to the spoiler is excellent - wonder if that is a repaint?

New here! Currently located in Clovis, New Mexico. Picking up this SC300 w/ 2JZGTE swap from my coworker after our deployment. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/lex...ml#post8147923

I'm pretty excited to get it and go single turbo. It has a W58 trans and the Auto SC300 rear diff. So I may just stay on the stock twins until I save up enough money to get a V160 and Auto TT torsen diff.

My last fast car was a 2011 Mazdaspeed 3. I had every bolt on you could do. Then parted it out when I decided to buy the SC300.

My name is Thomas and I am a new member from the Pacific Northwest... I am the owner of an Automotive Machine shop in Oregon, Levelride Concepts and I just wanted to introduce myself on this forum... I personally own a 97 Nissan Skyline R33 GTR VSpec, but we sponsor a driver in Pro-Am Drifting named Cameron Moore who drift's a 2jz powered Lexus SC... We produce the finest quality hydraulic e-brakes on the market, which Cameron runs in his SC with a 3/16" mount plate... We fabricate from our own hands from the simplest of orders like shift ***** threaded to vehicle specs, to Full race builds including roll cages and custom one-off chassis bracing... Thanks for letting me ramble...

Good Morning all, I'm an old L1 Mastertech and have admired these cars for years, The engineering that basically lead the way for the great reputation of these cars forced others to get it together! I recently acquired a 95 SC4
Diamond White, Neutral int, Increadable sound system for 95, Compares to a $3000 system of today! Anyway It had been owned by a 50 plus year old gal that really didn't want to get rid of it but it was time for someone to bring it back to it's old glory! Something about certain cars that makes it fun.....

Hey guys...names Tre i'm from Massachusetts and new to the Lexus world. I bought a 95 Sc300 about two months ago at a steal of a price. I have pics of it up on Instagram @enrg_ms3. So far it only has CX racing super low coils on it along with xxr521 18x10's +25 all around. I knew I would fall in love with this car as it reminds me of both of my MKIII Supra's!! I just recently came from the Mazdaspeed world and let me tell you those guys suck....terrible community. But I am glad to be back in the Toyota/Lexus family.
